Est. 2008
Nothing quite like the local flick There used to be ont in Rayletigh, don't know if you remember? It showed 'The Charge of the Lightbrigade' thete and also 'A Clockwork Orange'.These places always had such an intimate feel to them didn't they? It felt almost as though you were sitting in your lounge with an extended family!
Wevreally miss it but thankfully the little cinema in Knutsford is quite adequate for our needs and only a 20 minute drive away. We saw the fabulous "Slumdog Millioaire" there last week.Yes, i vaguley remmber the cinema in Rayleigh though i dont think i ever went to it. Plenty in Southend and Westcliff in the 60's - all sadly gone like so many. I used to bunk off from art school with some mates and watch daft B movies with all the pensioners in the afternoons sometimes. The old Garons cinema was a great- like a long corridoor with a tiny screen at one end. It used to show newsreels and cartoons befor the double bill of Hammer Horror or some other old tosh. Great days!
